Host space, not energy or symbiont size, constrains feather mite abundance across passerine bird species

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 93, Issue 4, Page 393-405, April 2024.
Why some host species hold larger symbiont abundances than others is an open question in ecology. Comparison of the empirical scaling of feather mite abundance with predictions from the metabolic theory of ecology showed that space (number of feather barbs of bird species), and not energy, was the main constraint to feather mite infracommunities ...

Lethal and sublethal effects of carlina oxide on Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae) and Neoseiulus californicus (Acari: Phytoseiidae)

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 3, Page 967-977, March 2024.
Carlina oxide is very toxic toward mobile stages of Tetranychus urticae, also showing a high ovicidal effect even at low concentrations. By contrast, it is harmless for the phytoseiid Neoseiulus californicus but a strong repellent effect was recorded during the first 48 h. Abstract BACKGROUND Tetranychus urticae Koch, is a polyphagous and damaging pest,

The importance of habitat type and historical fire regimes in arthropod community response following large‐scale wildfires

Global Change Biology, Volume 30, Issue 1, January 2024.
In this study, we used DNA metabarcoding to assess the response of arthropod pollinator communities to large‐scale wildfires across diverse habitat types in California. We found no significant difference in alpha diversity values between burned and unburned sites and, when comparing all sites, we found that burn status was not a significant grouping ...
